Lexia Tech Note #201016

After update on Windows 7, Lexia Reading icon is not the new icon

Solution:

When you update Lexia Reading 6.0.2 to 7.0.x on Windows 7, the Lexia Reading icondoes not update to the new 7.0.x Lexia Reading icon

There is a 2 step process to fix this:

  1. First:
    1. Go into Computer, into C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local
      NOTE: AppData is a hidden folder. If you do not see AppData, you need to click on Organize->Folder and Seach Options, select the View tab, and click on "Show Hidden Files and Folders"
    2. Delete the file IconCache.db
  2. Second:
    1. Use Control-Alt-Delete to Start Task Manager
    2. Click on the Processes tab
    3. Select the "explorer.exe" process
    4. Right click and select "End Process"
      NOTE: Do not be alarmed – this will erase all the icons on your desktop. They will come back after you logoff and log back in.
    5. Close Task Manager
    6. Use Control-Alt-Delete to select Log off
    7. Log back in
    8. The Lexia Reading icon should now show as a blue "L" book
